ORFHON. SUNDAY. APRIL 10. 1036, 1 -' . J y Holly Theatre Will Re Open Wednesday For Showing Of Clever Mother-ln-Law Comedy. A triumvirate of exceptional star power brings Clark Gable, Myrna Loy and Jean Harlow In "Wife v. Secretary" to the Craterian theatre, where' it start a three day run to day. Fa6t-paced, up-to-date film enter tainment, based on Faith Baldwin's widely-read Cosmopolitan Magazine story. "Wife vs. Secretary" shows how a series of events Innocent though they might be. caused a wife to become suspicious of her bus band's secretary particularly when the secretary is as desirable as Har low. Thoroughly modern, with laugh ' situations . mixed with the heart throbs, set against the spectacular background of New York's skyscrap er world and the more exotic set tings of Havana, the film play shows Gable as the wealthy publisher, very much In love with his charming wife. Myrna Loy, but caught in an emotional crisis by the presence of bis secretary. Jean Harlow. May Robson, Hobart Cavanaugh, George Barbler and James Stewart head the supporting cast. On Wednesday only, the Craterian will have one of the- screen's favor ite comedians. Edward Everett Hor ton, with Peggy conklln. Laura Hope Crews and Grant Mitchell also fea tured. In "Hpt Master'! Voice." That proverbial fear of one's mother-in-law and her caustic tongue, which seems to be a deeply-Ingrained part of our national conscious ness, furnishes the theme of "Her Master's Voice." ' Horton plays the part of Ned "ar rar, suffering from the combination of too, much mother-in-law and the fact that he's fresh out of a job. Mother-in-law is one of those de lightful persons who only stops re minding Ned that he's out of work when she shifts over to the theme of "oh why did my daughter ever marry such a man." How Ned finally proves to every one's satisfaction that he really has "what It takes" forms the hilarious and surprising climax to the film. "Her Master's Voice" will also be shown Wednesday night only at the Holly theatre. Archie Legg Music For Eagles Dancing Fred Powell, chairman of the com mittee In charge of arrangements for the Eagles' dance Tuesday evening, announced that negotiations have been completed with Archie Legg's Brunswick recording orchestra of Yreka to play for the affair, which will be held In the Oriental Gardens ballroom. The orchestra, which has been brought here twice within the last 18 months by the Eagles, Is a 12 -piece aggregation known throughout north ern California and southern Oregon as a fine band. Following this dance the orchestra is leaving for a two weeks' engagement in Los Angeles. Previous appearances of the band here have brought enthusiastic re sponse, and Chairman Powell states that the committee feels fortunate in having obtained It for the Tues day dance. Powell also stated that tentative plans have been made for the ap pearance of tho orchestra at the chamber of commerce annual ban quet earlier the same evening. The dance is being held to raise funds to send the drill team to the convention scheduled for June at 811 verton. Ore.

A new milestone In the brief but spectacular history of the motion picture will be marked with the opening Thursday at the Craterian theatre of the screen's first all-in Technicolor outdoor picture, "The Trail of the Lonesome Pine." Fred MacMurray, Sylvia Sidney and Henry Fonda are starred. With color used on the screen as It la in nature as an Inevitable, natural background, rather than as an exciting new novelty with which to experiment, "The Trail of the Lonesome Pine" accentuates the story first of all, allowing the color to take care of itself In Its own natural way. The result is a picture that even in the standard black and white would make fine entertain ment. With the added effect gained by color, the film has started a new era in picture production and we can expect many of next year's more important film plays using the Technicolor process. Set in the beautiful Cumberlands (actually filmed In the high Sierra), "The Trail of the Lonesome Pine" presents Miss Sidney and Fonda as members of the same mountain clan, who all their Uvea have loved each other and warred together in a neighboring family. Ancient ways are changed however, when MacMurray. a young engineer, arrives to con struct a railroad line through their hills. He wins Miss Sidney's heart. while Fonda, in bewilderment, sees the collapse of the, only code he knows to fight and kill for what he loves. The film reaches a climax when Fonda sets out after MacMur ray, and the rival clan simultaneous ly starts after Fonda. fir 7nK As the uny confederate who aur rounds the Yanks with smiles, as tounds them with songs and defeats them with dances, Shirley Temple returns by popular demand to the screen of the Rlalto theatre In her latest starring role. "The Littlest Rebel," which starts a three day run today. Ably supported by a fine cast which Includes John Boles. Jack Holt, Karen Morley and her old tap-dancing friend, BUI Robinson, Shirley plays her flrat great dramat ic role In this screen offering.
